I also echo the belief that De Santis will be the 2024 Republican Party Presidential Candidate.

Kingdom Hall in Barrington, Illinois
by Expanded-Mind ini often drive past a kingdom hall in barrington, illinois, where, when i was still a witness, i had visited a few times.
it wasn't too far from the hall i attended and we got to know people from this congregation.. i recently passed it by and it appeared there was a new sign in place.
yesterday i decided to pull into the parking lot on my way home, and it appears that the hall has been sold and is now occupied by seventh day adventists (i did a check online when i got home).

I don't know, but I imagine they were absorbed into another congregation.
I also find it ironic that the Seventh Day Adventists are now using the old Kingdom Hall. Aren't they one of the splinter groups of the International Bible Students after the hostile takeover of the Watchtower by Rutherford?

Some Other Terms For The "Big Bang".....
by titch infolks: as you probably all know, it has been speculated that the whole universe, or cosmos, started with what has been called "the big bang.
" but, i've thought up some other terms for the "bb".
how about the big boom....or, the big kaboom....or, the big explosion...the big ignition...or...the big cosmic fartation.

I don't mean to hijack this thread, but I prescribe more to the eternal universe model which uses the terms of The Big Crunch or The Big Bounce.
This is where over an extremely long period of time referred to as an "aeon" the universe contracts after expanding. Once it contracts until all matter ceases, it suddenly expands again with an event that is described as The Big Bang.
How long has this been going on? Time only exists when matter exists so it is hard to tell, but it may be that there is no beginning.

Because of Watchtower Doublethink, I am afraid it just won't click with your father. The Watchtower is a master at talking its way out of a painted corner.

Schopenhauer is definitely a person worth reading.
I've done research on the life of Wyatt Earp. There's much more to the story than the movie Tombstone.

I did a little research (very little) in the history of U.S. Presidents who were elected into office, voted out of office, and then re-elected back to office.
I give you President Grover Cleveland - both the 22nd and 24th President of the United States of America.

I am by no means a pro-Trump person or a MAGA follower. I do recognize that it is both possible and probable Donald J. Trump could be the 45th and 47th President of the United States of America. It has happened once before. It can happen again.

Then there was light.
by Earnest inthe universe came into being 13.8 billion years ago in the big bang.
after an initial flash, it went through a period known as the cosmic dark ages.
according to a new study, probing cosmic dawn, 250 to 350 million years after the big bang the first stars emerged bringing light to the cosmos.

Strong female characters in film before the 'Woke Era'
by LoveUniHateExams insince about 2015, hollywood has congratulated itself and circle-jerked over the 'strong women' characters they've written.
i'd say this roughly began with rey in the force awakens (2015).
what hollywood forgets is that strong characters have to have a personality, otherwise audiences don't really relate to them.. well, hollywood should really stop patting themselves on the back as if they've done something special.. strong female characters have been a staple for decades.. here's one: private vasquez, from aliens (1986).

so, she asked me if i would agree with this.

Get the labour for free then pressure the jw homeowner to donate the insurance money to the org.
There's a term for that - Insurance Fraud. People get sent to prison for it. In the U.S. most states have State agency that investigates and enforces it. If the money goes through the banking system it becomes bank fraud and the United States Attorney's Office Prosecutes it. Those cases are usually investigated by the FBI or U.S. Secret Service.
